Veteran NHLer Jussi Jokinen who played for four teams last season has signed a free agent contract with EHC Kloten of the Swiss Hockey League.




Interestingly enough, the contract is just for one month, meaning he could potentially return to the NHL after December 5th.

The 35 year old Jokinen scored five goals and 17 points split between the Edmonton Oilers, Los Angeles Kings, Columbus Blue Jackets and Vancouver Canucks in 2017-18, but failed to earn a free agent contract in the NHL this past offseason. In total he has 191 goals and 563 points in 951 career games with the Canucks, Blue Jackets, Kings, Oilers, Florida Panthers, Pittsburgh Penguins, Carolina Hurricanes, Tampa Bay Lightning and Dallas Stars.
